I remember the day my dad let me borrow
his boots. After finishing a golf tournament I was wearing golf shoes with metal spikes, but needed to
go to an awards dinner. My dad had his boots in the trunk, so he let
me borrow them. I was in the eighth grade. My feet were in the
twelfth grade. I looked like a pencil wearing swim fins. On this
particular day, however, big feet were an advantage. Dad's boots
actually fit. Even though my award was basically only a participation
medal, at least I could walk up to the podium in style.
This week's message is from 2 Kings 2,
the account of Elisha taking up the mantle of Elijah. It was more
than just a coat. Elisha was stepping into the ministry of
proclaiming the word of God to His people. The question for us is,
are we ready to take up the mantle?
